Linden Hall is the oldest girls’ boarding school in the United States. In the 2024-2025 school year, the school is preparing a series of events for prospective (潜在的) students and their families to learn about the school.
Fall Open House
Linden Hall invites prospective students and their families to visit campus for our Fall Open House on Monday, October 14.
On this day, after students and their families arrive, they will enjoy a campus tour at 8: 20 am, then sit in on a discussion with school administrators at 9: 10 am. After that, prospective students will shadow (跟随……实地学习) classes for the day to 3: 35 pm and attend lunch in Lombardo Dining Hall on campus. Families will leave campus and return at 3: 35 pm to pick up their students.
Saturday Tours
Linden Hall welcomes prospective students and their families to visit campus for a Saturday tour at 10: 00 am on November 16 or December 7.
Tours will include walking through the classroom buildings, the dining hall, and the gym (体育馆). Experienced student tour guides will lead these tours.

One night, as I was driving down the road, I found something was sitting in the middle of the road. A few seconds later, I realized I was looking at a large turtle (海龟). Afraid of it being crashed by cars, so I pulled over, ran across the road and dragged the turtle to safety. But I’d made one big mistake.
I had heard that the best way to pick up a turtle without hurting it was picking it by the tail in order not to get bitten. So I’d made that big mistake. While the turtle turned out OK generally, I was determined to figure out how to move a turtle properly. I needed to find someone who dealt with turtles. I found the Ontario Turtle Conservation Centre. I talked to Dr. Sue, its Executive and Medical Director.
Dr. Sue told me that the organization dealt with a number of aspects of turtle conservation, including rescue, settlement, birth programs, research, and education. Sue explained that southern Ontario is not only home to a vast majority of turtles in Canada, but is also one of the vastest road networks of the country.
“Ninety percent of injured turtles brought in are caused by cars. These turtles spend a lot of time on land. And they do travel many kilometers on land for a variety of reasons, to find a nesting spot, or to hang out for the summer or winter. Turtles know where they want to go. So, just keep them going in the direction they want to go and you may have saved a turtle’s life,” Dr. Sue said.
Once an injured turtle arrives at the center, there are medical facilities (设备) ready to go, including an X-ray machine. That’s when the team gets to work with healing injuries, and help their patient.
4．Why did the author stop the car
A．To make a discovery. B．To see the thing clearly.
C．To prevent a car accident. D．To help the turtle.
5．What can we infer according to paragraph2
A．The turtle was injured a little bit by the author.
B．The turtle lost its direction.
C．The turtle was run over by a car.
D．The turtle got hurt by people previously.
6．What did Dr. Sue suggest at last
A．Leaving the turtles alone. B．Making Ontario home to turtles.
C．Changing the road conditions. D．Helping turtles find nesting spots.
7．What does the underlined word “patient” refer to in the last paragraph
A．The director. B．The author. C．The turtle. D．The driver.

Six scientists received some good news: they were being treated to an eight-month, all free trip to Hawaii. There was just one little difficulty: they would be spending all eight months living under Mars-like conditions to simulate (模拟) a mission to the planet. They carried out their own research projects, as NASA researchers watched to see whether they would develop cabin fever (幽闭烦躁症)－a feeling of upset and impatience when people have been inside for too long. The mission is in the hope of better understanding life on Mars.
For the mission, surfing, fresh air and sunshine were all off the menu. During the eight months, the scientists had to live together in just 1, 300 square feet of living space, built on the side of the Mauna Loa (a volcano). Whenever they wanted to take a short walk outside their “house”, they had to put on a 40-pound spacesuit. As if to make things even tougher, showers were limited to eight minutes each week.
Perhaps it should not be overly surprising that with the six having now completed their mission, they said re-entering the outside world was “a big joy”.
One possible reason why the six survived could be found in their blogs. The mission commander, Ms Lenio, said she learnt to play an instrument and improved her French. Another scientist, Sophie Milam, excitedly posted a model boat made out of sticks by herself.
But it wasn’t all fun. About halfway through the mission, bad weather left them unable to use their solar-powered batteries. They had to gather closely together for warmth and limit energy use to just the important systems. Ms Lenio said, “If we had really been on Mars, that would have been life or death.”
Luckily, it did seem that the scientists had succeeded in avoiding cabin fever—Ms Lenio referred to her partners as “lovely people”.
8．Why does the author mention a trip to Hawaii in Paragraph 1
A．To describe the easy life of scientists.
B．To tell us Hawaii is popular among visitors.
C．To introduce the special mission.
D．To show Hawaii is a perfect place to do research.
9．What can we learn from the scientists’ blogs
A．Life on “Mars” was always colorful. B．They were hopeless during the mission.
C．They did what they liked to kill time. D．They learned something from each other.
10．What do Ms Lenio’s words in Paragraph 5 mean
A．The result would have been more serious on Mars.
B．They wouldn’t meet the problem on Mars.
C．Ms Lenio felt lucky to survive the mission.
D．The mission was actually meaningless.
11．What may be the best title of the text
A．Scientists prove living on Mars is possible
B．Six scientists’ trip to Hawaii simulates a mission to Mars
C．Scientists learn a lot during their trip to Mars
D．Six scientists successfully complete their mission on Mars
D
Honeybees fly much longer distances in the summer than in the spring and autumn to find good sources of food, a new study has found.
Researchers at Sussex University spent two years researching the “waggle(摇摆)dance” of honeybees, a form of communication by which the bees tell their nestmates where to go to get the best source of food to bring back to the hive(蜂箱).
By measuring the angle of the dance in relation to the sun and the length of time the bee waggled its body while moving in a figure of eight pattern, researchers have been able to map the distance and location where bees forage(觅食)from month to month.
With a one-second waggle equal to a foraging distance of 750 meters，the bees' dance language revealed that the area they covered in search of food is about 22 times greater in the summer (July and August) than in spring(March) and six times greater in summer than in the autumn (October). In the summer the area they cover is 15.2 sq km，compared to 0.8 km in spring and 5. 1 km in the autumn.
Honeybees will not waste valuable time and energy travelling to find food if they don't need to, so the researchers say the results show that the summer is the most challenging season for bees to collect the nectar and pollen from flowers.
“There is a large quantity of flowers in the spring and autumn, but it is harder for them to locate good blocks of flowers in the summer because agricultural intensification means there are fewer wildflowers in the countryside for bees,” said Frances Ratnieks, author of the study.
The researchers say the results can be used to focus efforts to help bees better. “The bees are telling us where they are foraging so we can now understand how best to help them by planting more flowers for them in the summer,” said Ratnieks.
What is the recent research mainly about
A．Relationship between honeybees. B．Honeybees’ eating behaviour.
C．Sources of honeybee food. D．The honeybee’ dance language.
13. What makes summer the most challenging season for bees to find food
A. The high wind. B. The strong heat.
C. Lengthening days. D. Shortage of flowers.
14. What does the last paragraph mainly talk about concerning the research finding
A. Its practical application. B. Scientists with new perspectives.
C. Expectations for future studies. D. Its appeal to the public.
15. What is the main idea of the passage
A. Honeybees use the waggle dance to communicate.
B. Honeybees fly longer distances in summer to find food.
C. Agricultural intensification reduces wildflowers for bees.
D. Researchers are helping bees by planting more flowers.
